The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) has revealed its plan to extend operating days to Saturdays in order to provide additional assistance to taxpayers requiring support with the new tax system.
The tax authority disclosed the additional opening hours in a statement signed by its executive chairman, Zacch Adedeji, on Thursday, noting that its tax offices will operate from 8 May to 27 June 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 pm on Saturdays.

The NRS explained that it extended its operating hours to provide required support to the taxpayers with the newly launched system, Rev360, and facilitate seamless compliance during the June peak companies’ income tax filing period.
The NRS’s Rev360 was launched on 30 April as a next-generation tax administration platform, a transition to Tax Administration 3.0. The tax body said the platform introduces a more advanced, integrated, and intelligent ecosystem to meet taxpayers’ demands.
